There's one sticky in the amplifier section with links to the other important threads. That just cleans up the stickies. Check again and you'll find the link below.

EDIT: Actually the above link looks like a comment thread now. Not sure where the original went.

Google would have helped as well: http://www.google.com/search?q=gains+dmm

EDIT: So now turn to google and head here: http://www.blazerforum.com/m_66322/tm.htm The link in this tutorial doesn't work quite right so you need to go here: http://www.caraudio911.com/tutorials/GainSet/voltage.htm

any idea how I could go about finding about how much rms 8 volts

at 4 ohms would be in watts ?

I need to find a little car amp that will give off around 20w rms each channel ( 2ch)

for a portable boom box im making using 2 small 12v batteries from emergency lights

and using speakers that are 15w rms each.

found this on ebay, http://cgi.ebay.com/LPV8-Hi-Fi-Audio-Stereo-Amplifier-Amp-Mp3-Ipod-for-Car_W0QQitemZ120391386956QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Amplifiers?hash=item120391386956&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2%7C65%3A15%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

curious if it will fit my needs or not.

Square the voltage then divide by the resistance (ohms):

( 8 x 8 ) / 4 = 16 watts
